This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAUJ100X160-75S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAUJ100X160-75S in place of this model. The SAU replacement uses the same profile body, bore, stroke, force and SC-series mounting. It moves to the current CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensor switches (the SU used CS1-B / DS1-B) and adds the SAUF valve-integrated option.
Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-75S
The AirTAC Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-75S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X160-75S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-75S
The AirTAC SUJ100X160-75S is a double-acting single-rod adjustable-stroke profile cylinder. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site, giving a usable 85-160 mm extension window from the 160 mm nominal maximum. The 100 mm bore uses a 1/2" port and delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa. The extruded aluminum profile barrel is more compact than standard cylinders of the same bore.
This SUJ model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X160-75S, matching the bore, stroke, force, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. The SAUJ upgrade uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches found on this -S variant. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 2356 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), translating to a 200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note that the stop screw sets end position but is not a load lock; use an external rod lock for held loads.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The SAUJ100X160-75S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Legacy SU-family variants: SUD (double rod), SUJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAU equivalent (SUD→SAUD, SUJ→SAUJ). The current SAU line adds the SAUF valve-integrated option.
Where the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-75S Is Used
Variable Depth Boring
Machining fixtures needing field stroke tuning to hit exact depth targets between 85 and 160 mm without re-fabricating the entire cylinder mount.
Adjustable Carton Sealing
Packaging lines handling varied box heights use the 75 mm extend trim to set precise pressing force and stroke length on the fly.
Dynamic Diverting Arms
Conveyor sortation systems where the diverter arm reach must be tuned on-site to accommodate different product widths.
Replacing the Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-75S with the SAUJ100X160-75S
To replace the discontinued SUJ100X160-75S, specify the SAUJ100X160-75S, which is a true drop-in match for the 100 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. When sizing both ways, the neighboring 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while this 100 mm bore yields 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. Choose the 75 mm adjust window if your application requires trimming the extend stroke down to 85 mm on-site, which is often more efficient than mounting a fixed SAU cylinder with an external mechanical stop. Because this -S variant uses legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches, you must migrate to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the SAUJ. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → SAUJ100X160-75S
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S): sensor family CS1-B → CMSG
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB)
- ✓ Need a built-in valve? → SAUF
Airtac SUJ Adjustable Cylinder SUJ100X160-75S FAQ
Yes, the SUJ100X160-75S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUJ100X160-75S, sharing the same 100 mm bore, 160 mm nominal stroke, 75 mm adjust window, 1/2" port, and FA/LB mounting. You will need to upgrade the piston magnet switches from the legacy CS1-B/DS1-B to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
The 100 mm bore provides 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa, with a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw allows you to trim the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on-site, yielding a usable extension range of 85-160 mm. The stop sets end position only; it is not a load lock.
